Bayern Munich vs Schalke live stream: How to watch the Bundesliga season opener
Bundesliga is back again! It's time to get a Bayern Munich vs Schalke live stream
Bayern Munich vs Schalke is about to begin, scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m. Eastern / 7:30 p.m. BST / 11:30 a.m. Pacific, today (Friday, September 18th). It's on ESPN Plus and other channels.
German football is back, as Bayern Munich vs Schalke live streams deliver the teams into our houses today (Friday, Sept. 18). And this season opener has it all, or at least the team likely to take it all: perennial champs Bayern Munich, who have taken the last eight titles.
It's almost unfair, right? Well, things are staying status quo for Bayern, as new signee Leroy Sane (Forward) looks to keep the side's offense impeccable. Adding Sane to the flock, which includes Kingsley Coman, Serge Gnabry, Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller? I'd hate to be on the other side of the field.

Oh, and to make this game even more special, 7,500 fans will be allowed into the Allianz Arena to cheer on Bayern as they seek continued dominance.
But speaking of across the side of the field, it's not impossible to think of Schalke pulling an upset. Rabbi Matondo (Forward) and attacker Sead Ibisevic could team up to rain on those thousands of fans day.
Even if all of this English about German football sounds like Greek to you, you too can live stream Bayern Munich vs Schalke, and watch what it's like to be a fan in a stadium for a sporting event.
